Opting out of the virus panic should be an option
Fact remains the fatality rate is low - the 2018 flu killed nearly 70K in America alone, nearly killed me in another country for that matter, barely made it to the news. Uh?
Fact remains that for most people it is pretty mild. Pneumonia is no fun at all but only if you are old, or already having health difficulties, or have lung problems, or are overweight / diabetic, will the virus become a form of pneumonia there's no current cure for, but it does only affect a small percentage.
Fact - those not at high risk, or who are prepared to take the risk, are being frogmarched by the more fearful despite all the above.
So maybe there should be a declaration to opt out for anyone prepared to sign a pledge to protect those who are opting in. Swear to wear hi-vis t-shirts or hats clearly stating I OPTED OUT, perhaps, so they can recognise each other, and shake hands normally. A forehead tattoo saying OPTED OUT is complete peace of mind for everyone else.
A pledge, perhaps -
1. I will wear my hi-vis OO colours (lime with purple OO letters?) prominently at all times when in public
2. I will keep well clear of anyone not displaying OO colours
3. I will leave the bulk buying and panicking to the wusses
4. I willingly and voluntarily forgo medical investigation / treatment of any symptoms which remotely resemble this virus and in proof of this agree to having OO tattooed on my forehead. Now back off and let me get on with living my life my way since I am not risking or interfering in any way with yours.
Fair's fair.
